Detailed Overview (nerd talk)

From the point of view of REST, a "real" Web service is a service designed to embrace the "Web" from the ground up. The Web platform includes concepts that you’re probably already familiar with like URIs, HTTP, and common data formats like XML, RSS/ATOM, and JSON. Ultimately, services that embrace these core concepts will immediately derive the valuable benefits they provide. REST defines an architectural style based on a set of constraints for building things the "Web" way. REST is not tied to any particular technology or platform – it's simply a way to design things to work like the Web. People often refer to services that follow this philosophy as RESTful services. So does Maxpanda CMMS. REST architecture involves reading a designated Web page that contains an XML file. The XML file describes and includes the desired content. Once dynamically defined, users may access the interface.

REST is often used in mobile applications and automated business processes. The REST style emphasizes that interactions between clients and services is enhanced by having a limited number of operations (verbs). Flexibility is provided by assigning resources (nouns) their own unique Universal Resource Identifiers (URIs). Because each verb has a specific meaning (GET, POST, PUT and DELETE), REST avoids ambiguity. REST provides the following advantages, specifically advantages over leveraging SOAP: RESTful Web services are easy to leverage by most tools, including those that are free and inexpensive. REST is becoming the dial tone for systems interaction, including the use of RESTful Web services, which are, for the most part, the way cloud providers externalize their cloud services. SOAP services are much harder to scale than RESTful services. Thus, REST is often chosen as the architecture for services that are exposed via the Internet. Maxpanda's developers are able to make use of REST from within applications faster than they can with SOAP. REST uses a smaller message format than SOAP. SOAP uses XML for all messages, which makes the message size much larger, and thus less efficient. This means REST provides better performance since there's no intensive processing required, thus it’s much faster than traditional SOAP.

Social Logins? We got you covered

Maxpanda allows you to control access to your application using both the OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect specifications.Use Maxpanda as your authorization server to retain all of your user information, and grant users tokens to control their authorization and authentication. Maxpanda also supports using social login and pulling user’s external data into your organization.

Sign-In Widget

The Maxpanda Sign-in Widget provides an embeddable sign-in solution that can easily be embedded into your customized login page. The Sign-in widget carries the same feature set in the standard Maxpanda sign-in page of every user. Included in the widget is support for password reset, forgotten password and incredibly strong authentication – all of which are driven by policies configured in Maxpanda. Developers don’t have to write a single line of code to trigger these functions from within the widget. For consumer facing sites, social providers are also supported in our widget. Currently Microsoft Azure Office 365, Google Apps and Facebook are built-in and auto configured for your convenience.
Auth SDK

For those who are building a Javascript front end or Single Page App (SPA), the light-weight, JavaScript-based Maxpanda Auth SDK gives you the added control beyond our sign-in widget to cater to your needs. This Javascript SDK provides all the standard login support including password management and strong authentication. In addition, social providers and OpenID Connect are also supported through the SDK where the appropriate ID tokens are returned for downstream authentication and authorization needs.

Authentication API

The underlying foundation for the Sign-In Widget and Auth SDK is a comprehensive authentication REST API exposed through Maxpanda. Used as a standalone API to provide the identity layer on top of an existing application and authentication logic, or with Maxpanda Sessions API to obtain a Maxpanda session cookie and access apps within Maxpanda. This session integration provides an SSO experience across custom and Maxpanda-managed apps.
